This type of rash often
appears in adolescence. The body parts that tend to be affected are the face
and sometimes the neck, shoulders and back.
Most often it manifests
itself in the face. The face is what confronts us into the world, that part of
each person that others see first, and through which it is accepted or
rejected.
The face represents our
identity, the image we have of ourselves. Acne that manifests the problems the
adolescent has with his/her external appearance, with
his/her image, that is to say,
his/her identity.
He/she
has been able to live a conflict of confusion about who he/she is or what role does it play in
his/her family and in society. There might be a confusion by writing his/her
name on an important document or that people call him/her a different name as
he or she is called, or perhaps someone in the family does not recognize
him/her, perhaps because he/she
has done something different from what is traditional in that family or it may
be that he/she is repeatedly
confused with someone else, as can happen to the twins, etc.
Attack on the face = attack on my image, my
identity.
"I feel attacked by my own image, by the
comments of the people, mocking, etc”
It is a conflict of dirt and aesthetic
devaluation.
Or maybe because he/she does not feel supported.
"I am completely
devalued and I feel unprotected by not being like everyone else and not feel as
beautiful as the others”
Indicates that he/she
does not fully accept the image he/she sees, is not satisfactory, considering
it either ugly or because it draws too much attention. Also shows his/her tendency to compare with others and to lose value; in short, it
expresses the difficulty that has to love himself/herself as he/she is.
"I've become
really ugly".
"I do not like
people and I do not like myself”
Acne can also occur in
adolescents with low self-esteem, they do not know love themselves and try to
be or not to be, as someone else to please a family member. Acne indicates that
he/she is being criticized.
In adolescence also
emerges in a new desire that tries hard to get a place in human consciousness: sexuality.
This impulse always
gives us a conflict, on one side it attracts us, and on the other, gives us
some fear:
"I show my
hormones, I display I'm ready to have sex".
"I'm afraid not to
be sexually attractive".
"I want to keep
being the child in the house".
"I do not want
responsibilities for now".
This problem of a
personality that is not yet formed, that doubts itself, which lacks confidence
and maturity and invade shyness and fear of the others. From his/her judgment and his/her
gaze, it results in acne.
Adolescent skin becomes
inflamed, oiling because there is a new energy that wants to leave, but he/she
tries to stop it.
Through acne we try to protect ourselves from the
outside world, because acne helps us to be indifferent to attacks and
aggressions. We get ugly to choose the other. Shame about one's sexuality
becomes shame by grains.
Acne can be a way to avoid contact with others, a
contact that despite the need we feel , inspires fear to us.
In girls it may be due to a conflict of
devaluation of the feminine (vulnerable) versus male (decision, success,
security) for a trauma to the mother.
Acne on the upper back and
shoulders:
"I am alone".
"No one supports me".
"Everyone is against me".
Acne on the buttocks:
"No one will notice me".
"Nobody will want me this way".
"Nobody likes me".
Acne Rosacea: Rosacea is a type of acne that
has little to do with common acne. It is not the sebaceous gland acting but
capillaries. Acne rosacea is characterized by the appearance of pink spots on
the face that can turn into boils and pimples. Unlike common acne, acne rosacea
does not usually occur in people under 30 years. Those who suffer it most are
adults, with quite fair skin and especially women who are reaching the age of
menopause.
Conflict of stain, attack on one's integrity,
conflict of feeling or being disfigured. The person feels dirty symbolically
speaking. He/she could have done
something very bad, could have suffered sexual abuse and feel
"tainted" could have seen "something dirty". Always, there
is the feeling of being "dirty" by no longer worth as others, no
longer shine, either because others tell us or because we think it.
"You are/I am a pig" or "you
are/I'm a shit", “I am/you are incomplete".
"I must remove
(from my image, if it comes to the face) all that is negative, dangerous to me
and bring good things”.
"I want to
eliminate what is dangerous for me, femininity".
"I have to remove
from my image what my mother-father looks like".
Clan separation
conflict: not being accepted. "I am separated, excluded from the kisses of
my clan".
"I must remove my
face that gives the impression of being a woman, with being a man".
"I must remove my
face that gives the impression of being a man, with being a woman".
Conflict related to
alcoholism (own or from someone important).
